# 17.4. How do I get write access to the kde-core-devel list?

By default, when you have subscribed to the kde-core-devel list, you will not be able to post on this list; you can just receive the messages. If you want to post on this list, you have to contact Martin Konold first. He will add you to the list of people allowed to write on kde-core-devel.

This is not a kind of censorship: Everybody interested in developing will get write access to the list. We think that this procedure is a good way to keep the signal to noise ratio high on this list.

By the way, kde-devel has been opened up--anyone can post to it now.
